Duoyuan Global Water Inc. Announces Engagement of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP & Affiliates for Preemptive Third-Party Review

BEIJING, Sept. 28 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- Duoyuan Global Water Inc. (NYSE: DGW) ("Duoyuan" or the "Company"), a leading China-based domestic water treatment equipment supplier, today announced that the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors has engaged Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP & Affiliates ("Skadden") to conduct the preemptive third-party review authorized on September 14, 2010.

The engagement of Skadden's global team of U.S. and China-based counsel is effective immediately. The team will advise and assist the Audit Committee as part of a review of the accounting, internal controls and corporate governance of the Company, as may be necessary, to confirm that the Company's standards are in accordance with the standards expected of an NYSE-listed company. While there are presently no known accounting or corporate governance issues to be reviewed and the Company consistently has received unqualified audit opinions on its financial statements from Grant Thornton, an international accounting firm, for four successive years, the Company's Board of Directors previously determined that the appointment of an independent third party is appropriate to ensure the highest level of transparency and accountability.

The Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F for fiscal year 2009 has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The report is available on the Company's corporate website at http://www.duoyuan-hq.com and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Requests for hard copies of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements (free of charge) may be made by contacting the Company's investor relations department at (646) 277-1227 in the U.S. and at 86-10-6599-7968 in China.
